چکیده
We describe a reciprocal-lattice vector method for analysis of the diffractive self-imaging (or Talbot effect) of a two-dimensional periodic object. Using this method we analyze the fractional Talbot effect of a hexagonal array and deduce a simple analytical expression for calculation of the complex amplitude distribution at any fractional Talbot plane. Based on this new formula, we design a hexagonal array illuminator (HTAI) with a high fractional parameter. A computer simulation for demonstration of the HTAI is also given.

Reciprocal vector theory for diffractive self-imaging.
A reciprocal vector theory for analysis of the Talbot effect of periodic objects is proposed. Using this method we deduce a general condition for determining the Talbot distance. Talbot distances of some typical arrays (a rectangular array, a centered-square array, and a hexagonal array) are derived from this condition. Further, the fractional Talbot effect of a one-dimensional grating, a squar...
متن کاملDistribution of Residual Stresses in Polymer Reinforced Carbon Nanotubes and Laminated Carbon Fibers
In this study, the distribution of residual stress in fiber-reinforced nanocomposites is investigated. Fiber-reinforced nanocomposite is composed of three substances: carbon fiber, carbon nanotube (CNT), and polymer matrix. Unit cells in hexagonal packing array with different arrays as unit cell, 3*3 and 5*5 arrays have been selected as suitable for finite element analysis of residual stresses....
متن کاملInteger, fractional and fractal Talbot effects
Self-images of a grating with period a, illuminated by light of wavelength ̧, are produced at distances z that are rational multiples p /q of the Talbot distance zT = a / ̧; each unit cell of a Talbot image consists of q superposed images of the grating. The phases of these individual images depend on the Gauss sums studied in number theory and are given explicitly in closed form; this simpli e...
متن کاملFractional Talbot effect in phase space: A compact summation formula.
A phase space description of the fractional Talbot effect, occurring in a one--dimensional Fresnel diffraction from a periodic grating, is presented. Using the phase space formalism a compact summation formula for the Wigner function at rational multiples of the Talbot distance is derived. The summation formula shows that the fractional Talbot image in the phase space is generated by a finite s...
متن کاملOptical implementation of iterative fractional Fourier transform algorithm.
An optical implementation of iterative fractional Fourier transform algorithm is proposed and demonstrated. In the proposed implementation, the phase-shifting digital holography technique and the phase-type spatial light modulator are adopted for the measurement and the modulation of complex optical fields, respectively. With the devised iterative fractional Fourier transform system, we demonst...
